Some Boundary Problems, in Sobolev Spaces with Constant Exponents, Governed by the Nonlinear Operator of Plate Vibrations

Abstract

In this paper, we aim to investigate certain nonlinear boundary problems within Sobolev spaces, where the exponents remain constant. We focus on the dynamically modified operator, incorporating a viscosity term into the nonlinear vibrations of plates. Vibrating plates have a broad range of applications. To address user requirements comprehensively, we've taken into account factors such as the geometric configuration, material density, plate thickness, and Poisson's ratio. After formulating the problems, our method involves converting them into hyperbolic-type nonlinear problems. In this study, we examine six boundary value problems, establishing existence and uniqueness theorems for each. Lastly, we establish the existence of a solution for the stationary problem by employing a variation of Brouwer's fixed point theorem.
